I tested the attached swf file in Gnash from git trunk (after version 0.8.8), and the pull down menu was still missing the two names.

This lacks some selection methods (getBeginIndex, getEndIndex, and setSelection), but otherwise seems all right.

The malformed XML should no longer be a problem either.

isolate the portion giving you different traces.
we need it as small as possible.

yes, just tell me what trace you would like to add.
Thanks

Do you have a way to compile the ActionScript in the .zip
file back to an SWF ?

Attached please find trace logs generated by saflashplayer 8 (fldebug.txt) and by gnash 0.8.2 (gnash-dbg.zip).

The first trace msg appear in both logs:
myso.data.toload===:: undefined/undefined/undefined

After that fldebug.txt shows following messages which I can't find in gnash-dbg.log:

level:
Number_of_Correct_attempt: 0
Number_of_attempt: 0
time_spent: 4
recorded: false
game_id: G_01
end_session_time: Wed Jan 17 12:11:32 GMT+0800 2007
start_session_time: Wed Jan 17 12:11:27 GMT+0800 2007
session_id: NaN
to_load: undefined/undefined/undefined
Book: 1
Series: 1
ST_Name: peter

Finally the following trace msgs are shown in both logs:
peter
victor

I can add more trace msgs, but not being an AS developer, would need some advice on where/what to add. Attached please find *.as files (STUDENT.zip).

Thanks, Richard

you can use flasm to convert to asm-like code
and back (change the actionscript code).
and/or swfmill (swf2xml and xml2swf) to change the timeline structure.

Unfortunately I am not.  Let us spend some time to figure out adding trace.

Is it possible to simplify it into a simpler testcase?

Hong, are you the author of the SWF ? I didnt' realize that !
Adding debugging calls to edit_text_character I saw that the
text is even put into the textfields, just not displayed.

Can you add traces in the movie to print some depths or
other interesting thing for comparison with the pp ?

We followed your suggestion and modified STUDENT.xml.  We checked out Gnash HEAD as of today Apr 9, 2008, built with default non-debugging option, and ran with STUDENT.swf.  The result is consistent with your newest progress summary, that graphics still needs work, and gnash.log shows XML parsing better (Peter, Victor).

Gnash log is of big size (2M), so will email seperately.

Attached: modified STUDENT.xml

(file #15428)

Actually, I talked too soon.
The STUDENT.xml file is malformed:

Entity: line 1: parser error : attributes construct error
<Student Name="peter" MOB="January"LEVEL="KG" SERIES="1"/>


There is no space between ending double quote of MOB value
and next attribute (MOB).
Libxml (even with the recover option) gives errors and
return 0 childs. Adding the space fixes it for gnash.

Parsing of STUDENT.xml is better now. Parsed records are still
not shown in the pull-down menu though (but traced correctly).

Need help from the movie author if possible for next step,
as we'd have to add more traces and spot the difference
(if AS-related at all). Can still be done with flasm
but I guess the author would know better where to put them..

Simple AS code for testing:

---8<------------------------------------
x = new XML();
x.onLoad = function() { trace(x.toString()); };
x.load("file.xml");
---8<------------------------------------

makeswf -o dumpxml.swf dumpxml.as

create your file.xml and point the player on the swf.
STUDENT.xml is a good start as a 'file.xml'

I found another problem being parsing XML documents with
no defined root node.
The STUDENT.xml file has an implicit root, with
two <student> childs.
Gnash only sees the first one.

Object.watch should be good enough now.
Movie still doesn't work.
I guess next step could be adding traces in the SWF to find
where we fail. That's usually the easiest way to find out.

addProperty is fixed now.
Next problem is Object.watch being unimplemented.
Would be fun to work on it

One problem is addProperty("name", getter, null)
which gnash fails on. I'm adding automated testcase
for it, and will commit a fix shortly.

I have tested the attached file (STUDENT.swf) which was created on Flash MX using UI Components. On Macromedia Flash 7 player, a pulldown menu with two items (peter, victor extracted from STUDENT.xml) is shown. On gnash 0.8.2, only an empty box is shown.
